92 pts. Wine Spectator: July 27, 2004
Very warm, almost exotic wine with leather, plum and light prune character. Full-bodied, with soft and caressing tannins and a long, ripe fruit and vanilla aftertaste. Should come together nicely. Needs some time. Best after 2007.

90 pts. Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate: June, 2011
The 2000 Barolo Giachini is close to or fully mature. Tobacco, earthiness, cedar, truffles and autumn leaves suggest the wine is best enjoyed sooner rather than later. Anticipated maturity: 2011–2014.

90 pts. Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate: August, 2005
The 2000 Barolo Giachini, from the firm’s home vineyard, is the best of the single-vineyard bottlings, sweeter and fuller in aroma, larger-framed and more supple in flavor, sizable but elegant on its lengthy finish.
